Create Large Meeting Rooms with Meeting24

Creating web conferences with friends is not an uncommon thing to do within these days, but if you want to put a whole bunch of guys all together, it won’t be easy. Meeting24 is a free web app where you can create live meetings, up to 24 members.

Meeting24 is a simple and powerful web app; you just need a few seconds to set up your meeting room:

  1. Create an account. It is completely free.
  2. Set up the meeting room with just one step. This meeting will be available for 24 hours; you’ll receive an URL to use it with friends.
  3. Send the URL to your friends. They don’t need an account to login, just by clicking the URL will be enough.

Even though the meeting is available for 24 hours, you can still create unlimited number of conferences with your free account.

Of course, you don’t need 24 members to set up a meeting. The only requirement to use it is a web browser with Flash.

Google I/O Developers Conference at San Francisco

io-logoGoogle’s I/O conference it’s just around the corner, this developers gathering will be held in San Francisco, Moscoe Center, within the next few days May 27 – 28.

There are over 100 speakers announced officially (of course the disclaimer of “subject to change” is present as always), that represents many companies (around 80% are Google’s, of course) like Apple, IBM, Mozilla, Facebook, MySpace, Yahoo and many many others.

The main topics will be AJAX, APIs & Tools, Chrome, Google Web Toolkit, Geo and Mobile. To check on the complete schedule check this link.

If you check the confirmed conferences so far, some that could caught your attention: “Mastering the Android Media Framework”, “Google Friend” topics, “Developing Extensions for Google Chrome”, V8 JavaScript Engine, Eyes-Free interaction with Android, Cloud services and Google.

Here’s a small intro for Ryan Barret’s conference “Transactions Across Datacenters”.

Ticket’s pricing? $400. More than interesting if you ask me.

Hope that we can read a lot of feedback from these conferences, since last year’s event showed us one of the first demonstrations of Google’s Android mobile phone OS.
